Default Retro game! Computer Battleships from the '70's

MB Computer Battleships electronic battleships game for two players. Circa 1977. In excellent condition with original box and packaging, red and white pegs and ten plastic ships. Powered by 2 x PP9 batteries and works fine. Only problem is a loose connection on one battery terminal - it works in some positions and not in others.

£30 collected from Bristol

Hi, pics no problem - PM me an e-mail address or mobile number. It's pretty much mint, The plastic toy itself is unmarked, as is the inner packaging, with a few scuffs and a small tear on the outside box.

The "battery pad" - it's how the two rectangular 9v batteries connect. It's a black plastic pad with two power wires leading away and two connectors to attach to the battery terminals. There must be a loose or dry connection between the connector and wire of one pad as it works if it's in one position, but not in another. I tried it myself the other day. Programmed in some ships, shot some shots, got hits, so it all works. I hope this explains things.
